Stu Johnson reports that the team had another nice day of hiking today, climbing 3500 feet to the Plaza Argentina Base Camp at about 13,800 ft. There were some scattered clouds and a mild breeze that kept the temperatures comfortable as they ascended the Relinchos River valley from the Casa de Piedra camp. Now the team is all set up at the comfortable Base Camp and are looking forward to a well-deserved rest day tomorrow. Well done team!
